If you've noticed an error in this article please click here to report it so we can fix it.
lveco launched the stylish-looking Eurocarga to great fanfare back in 2003, and claimed it would be the most economical truck at Euro-3. Our fuel tests haven't shown it to be top of the pile, but it has given more than respectable fuel economy, and performs particularly well on motorways.
It sits on the road better than the old Cargo, and comes loaded with goodies such as cruise control and engine braking. even on the 7.5tonne models. It's a good truck to drive, and provides a good level of driver comfort, but don't bank on being able to seat three with ease.
Sub-15-tonne versions have a strong reputation and previous issues with cab sway and engine vibration in former models have been ironed out in the latest incarnation. Extremely compact and simple to drive, it's easy to see why Eurocarga is a favourite in the hire fleets. The market-leading range covers the six to 26tonne GVW sector, with wheelbases from 3,105mm to 6.570mm, allowing body lengths from 4m to 9m. Four and six-pot Tector engines run from 150 to 280hp.
*Very well specced; lots of goodies as standard Good fuel economy, groovy styling REASONS TO SWERVE You get what you pay for not least on residuals VERDICT A good workhorse with decent fuel economy and stylish looks. List price wishful thinking on Iveco's part
